Anyone have a feedback? How does it compare to Nike Alpha Fly/Vapor Fly?

Mizuno went through a lot of trouble to sidestep the 40mm stack limit. But no runner is ever going to win a major marathon or Olympic medal with a Rebellion Pro. They should of designed this properly with a clean rocker geometry and no gimmicks. It could have been a solid alternative to the Adidas Prime X.
From what I’ve heard, the rebellion pro 2 is fairly aggressive and firm compared to the squishy soft zoomx in the AF and VF. To my knowledge, not many people take it up to a full marathon, instead preferring it as more of a 10k-half marathon shoe.
Most reviews I’ve seen seem to agree that it can definitely work for you if you are a very solid midfoot striker, and if you enjoy the unconventional ride. It definitely isn’t for everyone, but it seems to fill a niche that some may enjoy. If possible, I’d recommend finding a shoe store where you can actually run a bit on a treadmill or track to test out the feel of the shoe.
I actually have all 3. Out of anything, I'd say it's most like the vf2. Fairly firm forefoot. The bulk of the foam is midfoot and it rolls you forward very aggressively. Did a 10 miler and by the end the tips of my big toes felt sore from being mashed into the end so much. Not sure I want to deal with that for 26 miles, though they are very fast. They feel like running on a sprinters starting block, if that makes any sense
